Encouraging Development for PAF after a long time. I think this ZDK03 has something to do with JF 17 Program while for F16 SAAB EREIYE is used.
 
There is no sign of 4th ZDK. Anyways, what this ceremony signify is ZDK's has become operational after 4 years of first induction. Training has been completed. Playbook has been developed in which scenarios ZDK can/will be used. Maintaining and troubleshooting ZDK has been mastered i.e Final Operational Capability achieved
